American Solera Opening New Tulsa Brewery Next Year

Next year, American Solera will opening a very new brewery in a very old building.

That building in Tulsa is known as the Bandmaster building located at the corner of 6th and Utica Street, and it encompasses approximately 14,000 sf of space that will include not only brewing operations, but also a brand new tap room as well. In addition, the new facility will replace the current River West location, but the smaller SoBo location at 18th and Boston will not be affected.

“Is the building in rough shape? YES,” reads a post on American Solera’s website. “BUT, we couldn’t be more excited to breathe new life into the building and call it home. We plan to create a brand new brewery and tap room in the space. The new site is steps away from Cabin Boys Brewery and Marshall Brewing Company. We are excited to create a community of craft brewers in the area. There are so many possibilities to grow our relationships with fellow Tulsa breweries in this space.”

According to the brewery, the River West location will remain open throughout the construction process, which is anticipated to take six-eight months to complete, with an opening date currently scheduled for late spring or early summer 2019.

I am an editor of Tenemu as well as a co-founder of Rueda Media, LLC and the cigar blog halfwheel.com. In my former life, I was a photojournalist for the Dallas Morning News and Fort Worth Star Telegram for almost seven years and a documentary wedding photographer for almost 13 years. I have been drinking craft beer in various incarnations for about seven years. I shoot and edit many of the site, assist in staff management, cover news and assist in running Tenemu's social media accounts. My focus is on reviewing stouts, gose, lambics, fruit and smoked beers, although I also enjoy quite a few sours and some IPAs when not reviewing. In what little free time I have, I enjoy smoking cigars, photographing various art projects and pretending that I can cook something edible.
